February 25, 2012 - very solid bottle - opened about 30 minutes prior to drinking. Nice but not too powerful
January 11, 2012 - Great ripe flavors. Smooth finish. This is drinking perfectly for this wine
December 16, 2011 - 6 Pinot Noirs from Different Origins (Le Petit Sommelier Restaurant): Excellent pinot. Still youthful, with strawberries, red cherries, violets, smoke and floral scents. Medium-bodied, firm but fine tannins that require some further aging, rich fruit and high acidity offering vibrancy. Long aftertaste. Cellar for 2-3 more years.
December 26, 2010 - A bit too oaky. Some alcohol on the nose. Other than that, quite good.
January 30, 2010 - well sourcerd dense fruit that comes out a little too fast with hints of toasty oak. The tart pie smell made the wine a great apertif. We all enjoyed. Lacking a structure on the mid palate was a very well made pinot
November 14, 2009 - not impressed -all jolly rancher with no real "fruit" flavor. Nothing earthy going on either.
October 10, 2009 - On the nose raspberry and floral notes.Medium to full palate with vibrant red toned pinosity fruit.Very smooth and supple.Not much oak or secondary aromas.Got clearly better in the glass after some airing.Great stuff.
August 23, 2009 - Fruit forward Pinot, with a lot of dark cherry. Heavy on the alcohol in the nose. A bit of leather on the nose, with a slight tannic finish
June 29, 2009 - Tasted on Viking Line from Turku to Stockholm. The bottle was opened for my pour. A fairly dark red, with a nose of bright red fruits and some leather. The palate was somewhat sweet, with lots of red fruit like cherry, and quite a bit of tannins. A rather tastey wine, fruit forward (but not aggressively so), eminently quaffable, nice stuff. 50+4+11+15+7=87
October 3, 2008 - Red Carpet: Darker ruby red-shows some age; intense cherry, blkberry, hint spice-leather nose; but earthy, tannic, bitter mth! Strang--unbal. Grt nose, bad mth
